Three Sisters, Two Feet, 8 Paws

By Bob Nuchow

THREE SISTERS, TWO FEET, 8 PAWS is an illustrated prequel children's book for my first Y.A. adventure novel, CALINE.

THREE SISTERS, TWO FEET, 8 PAWS was written and published while writing the final chapters for CALINE.

A little girl walked to a ball she left on the carpet in the middle of the room and kicked it.

"Caroline, no kicking your soccer ball inside the house "

"Daddy. It's too hot outside "

Caroline's house was nice and cool. Her house was one of the few that had electricity to keep it cool and bright inside.

Caroline's mom and dad put panels on the roof and even were even planning to get a car with panels on it too.

They told Caroline that the sun and the panels can make lots of electricity to power everything in their house and even power a car for them to drive.

Caroline thought that was good because lots of houses of had no electricity when it got too hot outside.

That was happening more and more with days getting hotter and hotter.

Today was very hot, so hot she and her friends were sent home from school when its electricity went out again.

The school called everyone's parents. They had Caroline's father pick up and take her home. He worked in the forest keeping people and animals safe.

Caroline's mom couldn't go to the school. She was busy taking care of, finding places to put all the animals. There was no electricity to cool where she worked.

"Caroline? Your mom is bringing home a surprise. She'll be here soon

Caroline knew the surprise would be an animal. Her mom sometimes brought home one from the clinic where she took care of them as a veterinarian.

Her mom kept bringing surprises home when electricity went out from more and more hot days.

Caroline wondered whether her mom's surprise would be a puppy, kitten, old dog, or cat.

"Caroline. Your mom's home "

Caroline ran to the door excited to see what surprise her mom brought home today.

"Caroline. Wait here inside. I'm going out to help your mom with her surprise for you."

Daddy, helping Mom? Wow Two surprises, Caroline thought.

Caroline peaked through a narrow window curtain next to the door.

Her mom was holding a big puppy. Her dad a big kitten.

No, that wasn't a puppy and that wasn't a kitten.
